Information

Due to extensive habitat loss and conflict with humans, the situation concerning the Amur Leopard is critical. However, the fact that it's more eminent cousin - the Amur tiger - recovered from a precarious state of fewer than 40 indivuals from 60-70 years ago gives conservationists hope. It is believed that the Amur Leopard can be saved from extinction if the present conservation initiatives are implemented, enhanced and sustained.
